I think Bruins fans are salivating at the thought of a Blues/Bruins final.
I'd have to agree that Boston would fare much better vs St Louis than San Hosé.

He was lucky as shit to win game 3! interestingly enough we never hear about how blues losing gm3 was the worst beat of this round and only second behind sharks beating Vegas compliments of the bogus 5 min PP!! I had sharks that 5min screw job, I got no problem admitting i was lucky. Sometimes ya get the breaks, sometimes ya don’t. Just don’t belly ache about make believe bad beats when ya lose!!Originally posted by mikejammLeave it to 'ol thermadouche to call the perfect fade!

Lmao. I love how everyone keeps doubting. Why in God’s name would they rather face the clearly better team?? Sounds like the guys sayin nuggets would have gave dubs a tougher go of it even tho they couldn’t beat the blazers!Originally posted by icon
There no way anyone including the bruins watching this series thinks they be better off against the blues. It obvious who the better team is.Comment -
Bro, we lost that game before the hand pass. Works out perfect cause I’ll be going to the game 6 clincher as predicted!! Woot woot!!Originally posted by ThaWojComment -
Not that I care, Game 3 Sharks were up 2-0 and 3-1, refs missed clear penalty for delay of game on the Blues, that game was far from a bad beatComment -

Hard to win when sharks have to play 5 vs 8 smhComment -
Lmfao. I get it, winning that game had no lucky breaks (guess you forgot blues missed empty net twice and sharks scored to tie it with less than a minute left, oh and then there was the goal, you know the one created by a hand pass???) but this game sharks hit a post and that why they getting creamed!!Originally posted by thomorino
Can’t make this shit up, you are the king of nonsense bs excuses when you lose, even worse act as if the garbage breaks you get are just part of you being on the right side!Comment -
Could you imagine this jerkoff defending someone in court?
Ladies and gents of the jury I realize my client is guilty as shit but what had happened was he inadvertently showed the cashier his gun while trying to pay, he didn’t mean to rob the store it was kinda just a bad beat!Comment -
Sometime teams match up better than others, look at Columbus. I don't think any other team in the East would have been as capable vs Tampa but they couldn't beat Boston.Originally posted by 2daBank
Some could also argue that St Louis is not the better team but i won't get into that.
Anyway, I think Boston will steamroll St Louis in the finals - the rest sure ain't hurting the B's.
I'm all in on Boston in for the Cup.Comment -
PLAY GLORIA! Blues hits keep comingComment -

Sharks loser +5.1 units
I don't see the Sharks going out like this, I think the series likely goes 7 but we'll see how healthy the Sharks areComment -
The NHL had gone head to head with the NBA all playoffs.Originally posted by big joe 1212Comment -
I'd love to see this series go 7 as that would just make it that much tougher for the winner vs the Bruins.Originally posted by thomorino
This late in the playoffs and Boston has had not had to travel like San Jose or St Louis and is at home resting and getting all the injuries and soreness tended to while the Sharks and Blues are still beating the snot out of each other.
Monumental edge for Boston in the Stanley Cup Finals with home ice and everything else.Comment -
Oh so now it injuries? Interesting; most important injury this series has been to a blues defenseman. Crazy how we don’t hear them complaining. Save your money this thing not going back to San Jose. Although am excited to hear your excuses afterwords so by all means take the sharks!Originally posted by thomorinoComment -
When you are as hot as bruins were sitting is not always the best thing. Blues love to travel. Can’t wait to get a split in Boston.Originally posted by iconComment -

Its interesting that the team with the longer layoff has lost the Stanley Cup the last 5 years, I think that a coincidence for the most part, but Rask was playing great.
I don't see Blues winning the cup with their power play, Boston's special teams have been great recently.Comment -
May the Schwartz be with you, PLAY GLORIAComment -
Hell yeah 2da, You're not bandwangon'in bro, you just know who the better team is. Like you said, that game 3 was a luck box special. I've watched every game in this series so far, Blues definitely got the momentum here!Originally posted by 2daBank

Sportsbetting 101: Here we have the typical square bettor. This is what is called recency bias. When recent performance has dictated their view. Do not look at a few recent games but the whole season as a whole.Originally posted by thomorinoComment -
Totally disagree only because its so late in the season. Long layoff is a benefit now as hurt players get to recover. I know you're cheering for the Blues but they will likely have a very hard time vs Boston just because of the way the respective teams arrived at the destination.Originally posted by 2daBank
Boston with less travel, rested, healthier, home ice and just BETTER (special teams etc) !
Huge hurdle for whoever plays the B's.
I personally HATE the Bruins but I'm thinking about my bankroll and not with my heart.
If you like money you would bet Boston as well.

Not that I care stupid fuk Eagles Fan doesn't realize the Boston power play has been better than St. Louis's almost the entire playoffs - go back to whining about your 5 dollar bets.Comment -
Not that I care the Bruins power play has been far better than the Blues all year little eagles guy - go awayComment -
Yeah but the Bruins don't have any significant injuries and Rask has been playing great, the time off definitely doesn't help Boston - I just think the Blues power play is so bad compared to Boston's that's the difference in the series even if Rask slows down a little.Originally posted by iconComment -
Anyone who knows me knows I’m the biggest bandwagon not very good fan there is. Believe me you wouldn’t hear me pounding the blues drum if I didn’t believe they were the best team coming into these playoffs. Most years none my friends will even go out and watch playoffs w me cause I’m usually betting against the blues, lol.,Originally posted by icon
Of course I’m rooting for them and had they proven me wrong other years id have been glad to jump on the bandwagon! but the reason I’m so vocal and invested in this team is cause I saw this coming.
Far as rest vs rust we can debate it back and forth all day but ultimately I’ve seen it work both ways too many times for either of us to confidently say which is better (think you can prob agree with that).
End of day the better team will win the series, unlike some i won’t lose a bet and come back to say “oh crap, I guess they were tired that why they lost”!!
It will be a very good, very long series imo. Rask has been playing incredible so it will be the 2 hottest goalies and the 2 teams that have physically dominated all playoffs going at it. I can’t imagine the series be more than -120ish right?
I can already tell ya I’ll be playing it much like all blues series so far (w exception of this series I didn’t take sharks gm3 and I think that was right decision). I’ll be chasing the road dog to get a split in each venue expecting/betting it to be 2-2 after 4., then my homerness will kick in (havnt been against blues any once it gets to gm 5, lol)..Comment -
Glad to hear it, can’t wait for more excuses!!Originally posted by thomorinoComment -
We can't know the extent of many injuries players have as teams are very coy about who is hurt etc. They only release the bare minimum with regards to injuries. Make no mistake many players not out officially with injuries ARE banged up from playing 3 rounds of very physical hockey.Originally posted by thomorino
I know Chara got hurt and is old so he would definitely benefit from the rest.We will have to agree to disagree about the time off thing. This is not just another game, its the beginning of the Cup Finals and the Bruins won't need any help getting motivated.

I think they just rested Chara because of his age and they were up 3-0, I heavily doubt he has any significant injury, he even dressed for game 4.Originally posted by icon
